There Is A “New” Toyota Tundra I Have My Eye On 

From what I understand, not being a Tundra guy, you’re in a very enviable position! Enjoy 👌

He's a content creator. He has to make moves to make new content. It's a business decision, not personal.

It’s pretty obvious, everyone is jumping ship from their 3rd gen’s. Watch peoples actions, not what they say.

I know this is a waste of time to respond, because you are gonna believe what you want, but here is where im at. When the recall came out, the 2nd gen demand went crazy, so on my dealer walks, i would focus on lots that had good 2nd gen options. In all of my research, I found myself wanting seat time again in a 2nd gen, plus some fun ideas i have for it. My channel is Tundra info based, so 3rd gen coverage volume will not change, this will only add content. If you think my move is recall based, let me throw this at you. As a content creator, wouldn’t I want a potential issue with a 3rd gen? All the views are in the negative side of things and that would be ad revenue heaven, right? So in closing, you don’t have to believe me, this is still America, but I love Tundras, all gens. So if I bounce around, its because of that reason. If i could own a 2nd gen and keep my 3rd gen, i 10000% would, but i dont make the cash flow some of these big youtubers do. Cant afford both. I appreciate you watching, have a good evening!

Get the truck you want!😊

@@TundraDude34 .. Mark, any good Tundra in your driveway is good thing. I think it’s smart to grab a late model 2nd Gen to compare to what you have now. Going back after having two 3rd Gen’s will give you a great perspective. Just hold out for the right 2020 or 2021.

Do you lose the roll down rear window with that cab.

Yes you lose the back roll down window but imo it looks way better.

And weighs less with a bigger bed

I can completely and utterly confirm, a move to a 2nd gen would not be influenced by any recall. If i could, or find a way, to keep my current 2023 and get a 2nd gen, i totally would. Unfortunately i dont have the cash flow that all these other RU-vid fellas have 😁

Just watch the car care nut video and it all makes sense. Now let’s wait for Toyotas solution, like he said a short block won’t be good.

Jon is a solid dude, and it was a pleasure helping him out 🙏🏼

Wait until you see my plan 😏

I respect that, and thanks for checking in from time to time 😁

I don’t think its happening any time soon with the value in the 23. The stars will have to come together but i do have a good 3rd gen install video coming up when the part comes in

That was a great truck! But i don’t regret getting rid of it. Crazy, but I would rather a low end SR5 to build up. That 20 pro was perfect lol

2 great trucks! I’m on the hunt for something low end, base sr5 style

I think my price range will be SR5.

There are plenty out there. But the smart shopper is looking for the gems. Which are clean 20 and 21s. Be careful at that lot 🤣

Thank you!

Hahaha queue in Leslie Neilson in Naked Gun “nothing to see here” 🤣 i assure you, if i could afford both, i would 100000000% keep my 23 as well.

I’ll see what i come across. Just put what you’re looking for in autotrader. Im sure they are out there

Then he wouldn’t be “tundra” dude 34 anymore 🤣 I love a tundra (owned 3) but I took part in purchasing one of the last titans since they have 0% financing and great incentives. (almost 10k off msrp) Depreciation is brutal but I plan on keeping it.

@MrJeffwards from the driving experience how do they compare? Is a 20k mile trd pro for 53k better than a 2024 Titan for the same money

@@kurtbeck5809 I believe the titan is better between it having more power, mpg’s, refinement and features than you can get with a gen 2 tundra but the depreciation is brutal with the Titan. I only bought new because used rates are awful to the point that I’ll be paying about new price at 0% by the time I’d pay it off at around a 7% apr on a used one.

I cant wait to see! It’ll depend on how those June sales went

No, i love that thing. Here is some good news though, click the link below to find that grille, and use promo code Tundradude34 to save 5% www.sparksparts.com/p-2019-tundra-trd-pro-grille-531010c070

If you’re talking about Tims video from a few weeks back, its not all dealerships that aren’t taking 3rd gens. Around here, business as usual

🤣🤣 you aren’t wrong, i’ve seen that quite a bit lately. For the record, i still love the 3rd gen. My channel is more Tundra news & information based as a whole vs what i drive. I have a good idea for some 2nd gen content, if I end up going that way. No changes to 3rd gen video volume though, just added content.

It will only add content. My channel is based around the Tundra as a whole, not so much on what i drive. This will add content, as i have some cool ideas

I will never abandon the new gen. That won’t happen. My channel is primarily based around Tundra information and dealer walks. We rarely see my personal vehicle other than here and there videos. Im considering a 2nd gen because i have some content ideas to add more videos. Case and point, 3rd gen video volume wont change at all, this would just be extra content (2nd gen).

I’m not part of the recall. And i will double down. Have the viewers raise some money so i can keep the 3rd gen & have a 2nd gen as well lol. If a trade happens, 3rd gen content volume won’t change! How often do we do anything with my 2023? The videos i make all based off of Tundras as a whole. Tundra informational channel

@@TundraDude34 Ok, cool, I am in a 24, and I am not in the recall either YET! This whole deal is just so disappointing and values are dropping like flies...

Its a crazy situation, and please know, if someone walked up and was like heres a 24 limited edition 1794…scrap those 2nd gen plans 🤣. Im stupid because i love all Tundras, and when im researching specifics, I fixate on whatever ones im doing. Its a good and a bad thing lol

Agree. lol. Quite the coincidence hahaha.

I would absolutely consider that. I dont really care about the color, more about the package and configuration

@@TundraDude34 understand

@seandelong3752 you still haven’t invited me to Bristol dude 🤣

@TundraDude34 sorry haven't been in a few years because of work. I promise if I ever go again I will have you a ticket

@seandelong3752 haha im just playing with ya

I still love the 3rd gen! I just wouldn’t mind some seat time in a 2nd gen. Its an all encompassing Tundra channel. There is no hidden motive. Lately, Ive been looking hard at the 2nd gens on the dealer walks, and it made me feel like some time in them would be fun. Thats it

Then happy hunting, may you get the best example out there. Can’t wait to see. In my case I was not happy with what was going on with the new tundra , it was bothering me. I traded my 2023 1794 for a 4 runner a week before their engine recall and mainly my decision was based on other things, but a good % on what’s was going on with it and I am glad I did. I soon as I give the 4 runner to my son I will be again hunting for one. I hope Toyota get their things together by then, otherwise second gen will have to do.

Cool

Haha! Nothing wrong with your 22 (i hope). Sick truck!

​@TundraDude34 not a single issue. It's been great. But I've got the wandering eye now.
